Tika Nath koirala is a person who elected in 14 times as a subsector head since the beginning of the camp Beldangi 3. He had studied in Lalai primary School upto Fifth Grade and he also studied the Nepali literature by himself. Mr K. B. Khadka the first and former camp secretory of Beldangi 3 was as his political instructor at his tenure in A/3 He also gave the very long volunteer service in Refugee Camp. Almost all the Refugees went out of the camp to earn but late koirala did not even make up the mind to go out of the camp for that. He always gave the volunteer service in the camp continuously.
No one had even thought that the load of the family rush to Narayan head in his young age.

We the victims of human wisdom and natural disasters are once again hit by the unexpected passing away of Mr. Tika Ram Koirala In the USA. Bhutanese people all over the world are certainly praying for his departed soul to be rested in peace and harmony. but, At the sametime, worried about the future of his five children who will have to struggle in a completely new and unfriendly environment. Therefore, I would like to express my heartfelt condolence to the bereaved family and urge all the resettled Bhutanese to contribute as much as possible to this family to overcome this heart-breaking disaster. On the otherhand, it is important for the Federal and State governments to enact strict rules to eradicate this kind of incidents. NGOs and charity organizations working with refugees and new arrivals must not hesitate to support Koirala family. Government should arrange free education, medicare, food and accommodation for the five children until they are able to earn their own livelihood.
